Offering a garden, Scalarea Estate Residences offers accommodation in Skalánion. Heraklio Town is 9 km from the property.

The accommodation features a satellite flat-screen TV. Some units are air conditioned and include a seating and/or dining area. There is a private bathroom with a shower in every unit. Towels and bed linen are featured.

The place was immaculate. Clean and stunningly beautiful. There are only 3 cottages but I think that night, my husband and I were the only guests. We loved the peaceful setting and appreciated all the details that the owner put into it. Breakfast was delicious! This was our favorite place in Crete. We would highly recommend a stop there on your way to nearby Knossos palace or Heraklion.

    Everything about this place was amazing. The villa is very well appointed and has all mod cons. Giorgos, who manages the property for the owners, couldn't have been more helpful. The owner herself popped in with some fresh fruit and homemade pie, which was just lovely. Couldn't recommend this place enough.

    Quiet countryside location 15min from airport. The studio has all amenities for a comfortable stay, and the taverna on the village square a large choice of excellent and low-priced dishes. Check-in is easy, and the owners spoil you with a small bottle of raki, and might bring you some self made sweets or garden fruit as well.

    beautiful peaceful location, spotlessly clean, modern decor and large walk in shower. we had a terrace with panoramic views of the vineyard and countryside around. Delicious breakfast was served on the terrace. it is on the site of Boutari winery so a very short walk home after a wine tasting. Great taverna in village 3 minutes drive away.

    Well-equipped studio in a cute, quiet village just outside Heraklion. It's perfect for couples and has everything you need for a relaxed holiday. It was easy to communicate with the host and we loved those little treats like figs, peaches, and raki. If you have a car, I'd highly recommend it!

    Eleni made us feel right at home at this wonderful place, beautifully located in a rural area between Knossos and the lovely village of Archanes. We were given organic oranges fresh from the garden, they tasted delicious! Nothing like the too perfectly looking oranges we buy from the supermarket at home. Her own produce olives were very tasty as well. A pity we could not stay longer...

    A nice clean one room downstairs apartment with a Comfy bed and nice shower, (though you have to hold it up) on the edge of a authentic but clearly still working village. Easy to get in (keys were just left in the door) and so never actually saw the host but their communication via email/WhatsApp was quick. Around a 35 minute walk (up and down a big hill) or 5 min drive to a local vineyard!
